It will be jointly built by a Swedish and a Turkish company.

Eco Wave Power (EWP) has signed a deal with Oren Ordu Eneas to build the world’s largest-ever wave power plant on Turkey’s Black Sea coast, according to a press release by the Swedish company published on Thursday.

The project would start with a 4MW pilot in the port of Ordu. It would then move forward to a 77MW plant which would consist of a fixed, modular array of steel floats hinged to piston-equipped arms.

These genetically engineered plants can take over the work of 30 houseplants.

A bioengineered plant is able to clean the air by doing the work of over 30 houseplantsIt could be the start of a bold new industry that develps over the next 15 to 20 years.

The Neo P1 is the first of its kind.

A startup in Paris has developed a plant that could take over the work of 30 houseplants — and it’s just the beginning.


A close-door “design competition” with selected global construction companies is underway.

Saudi Arabia may be weighing in on plans for a 2-kilometer-tall, world’s tallest tower, for its 18-square-kilometer master-planned area in the capital city of Riyadh.

“Contractors that have priced megatall towers in the region say that depending on the final design, a 2km-tall structure could cost about $5bn to construct,” said the report.

The oral and skin care brand has already undertaken two other experiments on the space station.

Colgate-Palmolive Company and NASA have entered into a partnership to explore innovative solutions to advance oral health, personal care and skin health for astronauts and even populations on earth, according to a press release by the self-care company published on Wednesday.

The deal will see former astronaut Dr. Cady Coleman join the team as an advisor for the experiments conducted.

Called the Space Act Agreement (SAA), the new project will see Colgate and NASA collaborate to test Colgate technologies, across oral health, skin health, and personal care product categories, that could help maintain or even improve the health and wellbeing of all space travelers in low orbit, either before, during, or after long-duration missions. The agreement will also see the International Space Station (ISS) used as an experimental testing ground.

The study brings much hope to patients with brain and spinal cord cancers.

A small pilot trial involving patients with lymphoma of the brain and/or spinal cord has shown that CAR-T-cell therapy known as axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) can be a viable treatment option for patients who often have little hope, according to a press release by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute investigators published on Sunday. “For many patients with lymphoma of the central nervous system, there aren’t great treatment options,” said Dana-Farber’s Caron Jacobson, MD, MMSc, who led the trial.

Our early results suggest that expanding the applicability of CAR-T cells to this indication could improve patient outcomes.

Today, the University of Colorado Cancer Center released new research that showcases chemotherapy treatment before and after surgery for pancreatic cancer as the most effective combination for patients.

The study findings were published in JAMA Oncology and led by Marco Del Chiaro, MD, division chief of surgical oncology in the University of Colorado Department of Surgery and visiting researcher Toshitaka Sugawara, MD, Ph.D.

“It’s critical to have large scale data that doctors can use to make decisions about plans for patients who qualify for surgery,” said author Marco Del Chiaro, MD, division chief of surgical oncology at the CU Cancer Center on the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.

One thing the Star Trek franchise has no shortage of across its many iterations and separate series storylines is the array of world-ending technological horrors always facing the constantly hounded Federation, and The Original Series started it all with this planet-destroying weapon of unknown origin which appeared in the episode of the same name.

Though the crew never quite figures out exactly what it is or where its origins lay, Kirk theorized it was constructed as a bluff to deter one side of an undetermined galactic war, reflecting the Mutual Assured Destruction fears of the time between the U.S. and Russia. It’s pretty much Star Trek’s famous answer to the Death Star, albeit ten years before Episode 4 would make its debut.

Hunting for lightweight dark matter particles requires detectors with much lower signal thresholds than traditional experiments. This requirement has prompted novel detection techniques, including probing the faint interactions that occur between sub-MeV particles and electrons. In a 180-hour-long experiment, Yonit Hochberg of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and her colleagues demonstrate a device that distinguishes hypothetical sub-MeV dark matter from background noise with record sensitivity [1]. Their experiment places the strongest constraints yet on interactions between lightweight dark matter and regular matter.

Hochberg and her colleagues etched an array of nanowires in a 7-nm-thick tungsten-silicide film to produce a superconducting nanowire single-photon detector, a sensor that is sensitive to extremely small energy inputs. When energy above some threshold is deposited on a superconducting nanowire, the wire briefly becomes a regular conductor, resulting in a voltage pulse.

The team circulated a fixed current through their device and sealed it in a light-tight box for 180 hours. They counted four voltage pulses, each corresponding to a deposited energy of at least 0.73 eV. Absent any other detectable energy source, these dark counts could be attributed to cosmic-ray-generated muons or high-energy particles excited by radioactive decay.
